Ogun State Command of Federal Road Safety Corps, has advised motorists in the state to emulate Jesus Christ as they celebrate the Easter period.

Sector Commander, Clement Oladele, who gave the advice in Ota, Ogun, saying the Easter was about the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.

According to Oladele, “Because Jesus Christ loves the world, he sacrificed his life so that human beings could find redemption, saying in the same light, when a motorist does not have love for other road users, he/she will not respect and tolerate them when they make mistakes on the highways.

“If a motorist does not love, he/she cannot respect the rules and regulations guarding the safety of the highways.

“If motorists do not have love for one another, they will not obey traffic officials that are labouring day and night, who have abandoned their families to ensure that people get to their destinations safely,” he said.

Oladele said if motorists could emulate the love, kindness, tolerance, and humility of Jesus Christ and apply it to the rules of the highways, it would reduce crashes and save more lives and property on our roads.
